A Punnett square showing a typical test cross. (green pod color is dominant over yellow for pea pods [1] in contrast to pea seeds, where yellow cotyledon color is dominant over green [2]). Punnett squares for each combination of parents' colour vision status giving probabilities of their offsprings' status, each cell having 25% probability in ...
Dihybrid crosses are easily visualized using a 4 x 4 Punnett square. In these squares, the dominant traits are uppercase, and the recessive traits of the same characteristic is lowercase. In the following case the example of pea plant seed is chosen. The two characteristics being compared are; Shape: round or wrinkled (Round (R) is dominant)
Punnett squares for each combination of parents' colour vision status giving probabilities of their offsprings' status, each cell having 25% probability in theory. Normal text denotes a person (or chromosome from a person) who has normal colour vision and no defective gene, italics: has normal colour vision and a defective gene, and bold: is ...

Punnett is probably best remembered today as the creator of the Punnett square, a tool still used by biologists to predict the probability of possible genotypes of offspring. His Mendelism (1905) is sometimes said to have been the first textbook on genetics; it was probably the first popular science book to introduce genetics to the public.

As such, flashcards are often used to memorize vocabulary, historical dates, formulae, or any subject matter that can be learned via a question-and-answer format. Flashcards are an application of the testing effect , the finding that long-term memory is increased when some part of an individual's learning period is devoted to retrieving ...
